Easter 2011

Easter was kind of a weird and busy weekend for us this year.  We bought new floors for our house and so Curt decided he wanted to put them in while he had an extra day off on Good Friday.  Our friends Jeremy and Nick came over and helped on Friday.  They all worked so hard and Curt worked into the early morning.  The kids and I just decided to stay at my mom's house because it was so busy and the house was torn to pieces!  Curt called on Saturday morning to ask if I could help because we weren't sure if we were going to have any help.  Reluctantly, I came home and helped him for about 11 1/2 hours on Saturday.  I was so impressed with myself and could not believe how hard a job it was!  Jeremy ended up coming to help and so did Crystal which was so great!  We got a lot done!  We brought the kids home late Saturday night so the Easter Bunny could come to our house in our sleep!
The kids were so excited about what the Easter Bunny brought us!  It just thrilled us to see their happy faces!  We went to church and had a great children's breakfast, Easter egg hunt, and worship celebration.   Brooklyn was so funny!  When the kids all ran out, they all stopped by the doors to get eggs...Brooklyn ran to the far side of the playground where no one was so she could have full reign!  She loved that!!!   We are so thankful for Christ's resurrection and love that Brooklyn knows what Easter is and why we celebrate the special day!  We joined my side and Curt's side of the family together and had our annual egg hunt, yummy lunch, and confetti egg war!  Brooklyn was the golden egg finder this year and she got a $5 bill in it!  She was thrilled!  Colson got to where he would shake the egg and call out MONEY or CANDY! 
WHAT A GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!
